Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

B
The infant who is sleeping may lose the grasp on the nipple and areola, resulting in chewing on the nipple and sore nipples. Inserting a finger into the corner of the baby's mouth between the gums to break the suction avoids trauma to the breast. A popping sound indicates improper removal of the breast from the baby's mouth and may cause cracks or fissures in the breast. Most mothers prefer the infant to continue to sleep after the feeding. Gentle wake-up techniques are recommended.
